Chapter 45 The sky is falling?
Nie Yao took his wife off work, and the two of them had a happy honeymoon in their new home.
I approve my own vacation.
After work, you also have to rely on your own consciousness.
Nie Yao had previously caused a disturbance in the imperial court, forcing all officials to work five days a week and have two days off. According to his calculations, they needed to go to work today.
Early in the morning.
Finally, everyone who had waited until their master started work lined up to report on their work, and Nie Yao handled it one by one.
The butler was last in line because the matter he had to report was not very important.
"Sir," the butler said, "a young master from the Yuan Kingdom's main family wishes to see you."
What do the people from Yuan Country want him to do?
Nie Yao didn't think it was a big deal, so he stood up and prepared to go have dinner with his wife.
Butler: "He said he wants you to help find someone, and he's willing to invest one million taels for this."
"Oh? Who does he want to see?"
"Du Suilan."
The butler lowered his head and said, "I have sent someone to investigate his intentions. Please review them, sir."
Nie Yao read through the small document in just a few seconds.
It said: The young man who had been squatting at his doorstep for two days was called Zong Chuiyu. This young master came to Yu State to help his brother find his sweetheart.
His brother, Zong Huan, is the heir to the first family of Yuan Country. Zong Huan is very popular in Yuan Country, and countless girls and boys want to marry him, but he has remained unmarried because of the boy he fell in love with at first sight.
Nie Yao finished reading it.
The changes in expression are extremely wonderful.
"This Zong Huan... he's not married yet?" Nie Yao frowned. Even though he hadn't expressed that intention yet, the murderous aura in his body was about to overflow.
His master is becoming more and more powerful!
The butler felt proud.
He replied dutifully, "Your Excellency, yes. Rumor has it that ever since he fell in love with Du Ge'er at first sight, he has never touched any other woman and has shown himself to be extremely infatuated."
Damn infatuation!
After all, it’s still dirty!
As a man who has lost his virginity, what qualifications does he have to pursue his wife?
Don't overestimate your abilities!
Nie Yao: "Kick him out! What's the point of a rich man squatting at my door? Is he showing off his wealth to me?"
The tone is not very good.
He also asked the housekeeper to go to the No. 2 stronghold and find a hundred strong men to surround the house, and arrest Zong Chuiyu if he dared to approach.
Send him to jail to experience people's daily life.
"Yes, I'll do it right away."
The housekeeper left.
Nie Yao rubbed his face with his hands, recalling what his wife had said about the many things a man pursuing her could say, and once again realized how popular his wife was.
"Wife, Zong Chuiyu is here to see you."
Nie Yao would not hide this kind of news from his wife, and he even asked her, "How is your relationship with him? Do you need me to entertain you?"
Due to limited time, the information found by Nie Yao's subordinates was not comprehensive.
At present, he is still unclear about the relationship between his wife and the brothers of the Zong family. If they are just friends with some acquaintance, then shouldn’t he detain the person for fewer days after arresting him?
"Zong Chuiyu?"
Du Sui Lan drank the soup that Nie Yao fed him and tilted his head to think about it.
My wife has smooth lips.
He didn't take the man seriously, "Oh, that idiot... What's wrong? He also wants to give you money to help find me?"
"……Um."
Nie Yao nodded.
The helpless and slightly angry expression on his face made Du Sui Lan burst into laughter.
"Hahaha...husband, you look like you want to kill someone!" He happily found a mirror and let Nie Yao admire himself.
Nie Yao was helpless.
He took after his father in his life. Even when his face was expressionless, he looked like he was angry. Since childhood, children of the same age would stay away from him when they saw him.
Later he went to the battlefield for a few years.
When I came back, I looked even scarier.
He wasn't ugly, and in his previous life he was a cold-faced handsome man. But in this life, there was no such title. In this world, people like him were generally called evil stars.
"Hahahaha!!!" Du Suilan couldn't help laughing, and threw herself into her husband's arms to comfort him half-heartedly, "Hahaha... It's okay, husband, I'm not afraid of you, hahaha..."
"Alright, alright." Nie Yao picked him up and sat him down. "Don't laugh until you choke on your breath, or you'll feel uncomfortable later."
"No way!"
Du Suilan hugged her husband and hummed, "Who made you so famous and approachable? If they come here looking for someone, they will definitely ask you for help first!"
In fact, Nie Yao is very famous throughout the world.
But it's not a good reputation.
He is greedy for money and power.
Rumors circulated throughout Dayu that the Minister of Revenue could settle anything for him, provided he offered sufficient funds. Within Dayu, anything he promised to do was guaranteed to be fulfilled.
In addition, the fact that Nie Yaozhen dealt with the bullies who oppressed some poor little people who had suffered injustice further confirmed the matter.
Du Suilan whispered in his ear, "Hubby, will you meet anyone as long as I give you money?"
"Ahem... this..."
That’s how it used to be.
As long as enough money is paid, he will take the time to meet those who ask for help.
But isn't that poverty?
Nie Yao didn't feel ashamed about making money.
He had a hunch that his wife didn't like him doing this, so he explained, "You know, I have a lot of people to support, so money has always been a bit tight."
The main reason is that those people eat too much.
There was no way he could not keep them from eating.
Forcing people to work without being fed was too much of a bummer, and Nie Yao couldn't do it. To prevent his soldiers from starving, Nie Yao had been trying to increase revenue and cut costs over the years.
"Don't worry, I won't do anything you don't like in the future." Nie Yao promised him.
"Husband, you are so kind! In that case, I will give you another three million taels of pocket money!"
My wife really finds every opportunity to give him money.
But he really can't!
Nie Yao refused the temptation, "Stop talking about my wife. Men become bad when they have money. How can a man who can spend his wife's money without doing anything be a good person?"
So stop giving him money.
He doesn't want to be bad.
Nie Yao held on to his bottom line, "Don't worry, wife, I have some businesses under my control, and the profits have always been good."
He has a good income.
It is because of excessive spending that one appears poor.
Nie Yao told his wife not to worry about his financial situation; he wasn't that short of money. He'd been frugal since his time in Moshi County, and now that he was better off, he was just trying to grab money whenever he saw it.
"You've suffered, husband."
After the conversation, Du Suilan wanted to give money to her husband even more.
He really has a lot of money and can let his husband spend it as he pleases!
"Let's not talk about this, honey." Nie Yao, not wanting his pocket money to get any bigger, quickly changed the subject. "I heard my father-in-law hasn't left his room these past few days? What's wrong with him?"
“I don’t know.”
Du Suilan ate the wontons Nie Yao fed him in small bites. After swallowing, he said, "Daddy asked the imperial physician to prescribe tranquilizers for him. He probably wants to sleep."
"Is father-in-law...tired?"
"No."
Du Suilan knew his father well. No one but him could have allowed him to go three days without work.
Du Suilan was full and shook his head to indicate that he didn't want to eat anymore.
He placed his face on Nie Yao's shoulder and said softly, "Daddy... probably dreamed about him."
